Hi,
I have tried several ROMs. I just installed the new CM 10.2 on my tablet and started to install all the apps I use. Almost immediately I got the error that the SD is full. Checked the space and this is indeed the case. I have only a few programs installed.
All together it shows that my tablet has 11,36 Gt of space and of this about 11 Gt is in use.
At the moment my CWM shows the root like this:
0/
10/
11/
12/
clockworkmod/
legacy/
obb/
Each one of these seems to have a complete android system all though if you try to access the folders they are shown as empty. I have no backups on the device at the moment so these should not take any space.
Also I am unable to use the external SD card as storage on CWM. It simply is not able to mount /storage/sdcard1. If I try to install zip it does not show the option to "install from external sd". The external SD does show up in the android and I am able to use it from there.
Any idea how to free up space from the device? What are these folders (10/ , 11/ , 12/)? How can I use the external SD in CWM?
problem solved

It seems that the space was taken by program data from previous installations. Deleted most of the folders in /sdcard0/android/. Still dont have access to external SD from CWM but I will try reinstalling it someday.

Hi,
Yesterday I was backuping files from sdcard to pc. I accidentally interrupted it in the middle of the process and then I got warnings on phone about sddcard being corrupted.
Next thing I did, was to change my firmeware (ICS). (Thats why I was backuping). In new firmaware I still got info about sd card being corrupted so I tried to format it on phone with no results. I formatted it on PC to fat system.
NOW here is a problem:
When I put a sdcard which is full (transferred files from PC) - in settings - storage I can seee that it is full (gives info about how many mbs are free). However when I try to enter external_sd with ES File Explorer or normal android explorer it shows that there are NO files on sdcard. When I try to connect phone with sdcard in it to PC I can only see main phone storage not SD card.
It happens with every sdcard I put into my phone.
Anyone knows what to do?
EDIT: Now I am on Hydrogen ICS
Did you check to see if the SD card was mounted?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
Yes it is. In settings I can see how much space is on it left.
*Is there a format option in ICS?*
*Maybe I should try formatting from recovery? How to?*
But still other sd cards doesn't work either.
My fault - Hydrogen ICS has new path to sdcard /emmc.
*panic mode off*
LOL........
since you sort it out yoursself, and cant thank yourself I made it for you....
the title says it all, i have wanamlite v12 rooted, i installed speedmod k3-20 this morning and noticed that recovery is mixing up my internal/external..... for example when i click on install zip from sd card > choose zip from internal it takes me to the external.....
the main problem is that it creats backups in the internal.....
anyone has an idea what can i do ?
Am i the only one with this problem ?
No you are not.
I have accidentally formatted my Internal Memory instead of my External a long time ago.
Simple way to avoid this problem is to Browse the files through recovery, using Internal and External options.
and see what is what.
Ok this is really annoying that all the app2sd apps only see the 8gig of the USB which is internal on the S1 but says its external on the tablet,
Are there any apps that can move files to the external SD card, on my samsung phone a couple of years ago i had an app installed that did this automatically when installing anything.

ive got the exacts same problem. its really annoying. but you can make your own script for REAL App/Data 2 SD.
youll just need Scriptmanager to boot the script on start up.
This is an example for my obb folder, which is now placed on the sdcard 2. it saves storage
But dont forget, if u dont fire up the script manually or start it up on boot, your game will try to redownload every data and place it on internal sd again.
Feel free to add some paths: i.e like the gameloft data stored on /android/data/"gameloftfoler".
" #!/system/bin/sh
#OBB Folder
mount -o bind /mnt/sdcard2/Gamesrelated/obb /mnt/sdcard/Android/obb "
(without qoutes)
create a script with scriptmanager, give it root and boot rights. there you go :good:
Thanks i will try that.
Thanks!
Hello! I just rooted and installed last stable cm-7 ROM on my Legend using this tutorial:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26735943&postcount=3
I thought all my problems were over but unfortunetley I was wrong.
After I downloaded & installed some apps, I noticed that my internal phone storage space is keeping gettig
low, even when I move every app to SDcard after installing it. Setting the sdcard as install location by
"adb shell" was not helpful either.
I guess some data is still saved on the internal storage, no matter if I moved it to sdcard.
I tried to create a partition on my SD so it can be used as internal storage, using this tutorial:
http://forum.hackmyandroid.com/showthread.php?t=220&page=1
But after I created the partition, my Legend couldn't identify my SD at all.
Lucky, somehow I managed to do something so my Legend could recognize my SD again, but I remained with
some less space on my SDcard. In other words, I couldn't delete the partition properly. Weird...
Is there any solution for this issue? I don't mind getting a new Micro-SD but how I cause my internal storage
stop getting full?
Any ideas?
OK, so I tried to create a partition with ROM Manger, but I after it's done and device is rebooted, Link2SD still says "2nd partition not found"....
So, I created the 2nd partition.. all setted up... even get a notification from Link2SD after an app is installed says "appname linked to SD"
BUT, still internal phone storage is getting low... I'm helpless.. any ideas please...
Has anyone else had problems installing larger apps? I tried installing "Broken Sword" from one of the Humble Bundles a while ago. It seems to just stop installing and says the application can not be installed. There is no detailed error at all.
I can install other (smaller) applications from the bundle. Maybe the partitioning is decided in a wrong way, I have the following:
Internal memory:
11,87GB - 11,52 free
Internal memory:
1,00 GB - 759 MB free
SD-Card:
7,41 GB - 5,69 GB free
The apk I want to install is on the SD-Card already and is 540MB which shouldn't be too much for any of the memorys, except maybe the second internal memory? Why is there this second internal memory?
SOLUTION 1: If you don't use an external SDcard changing the mount point of /sdcard1 and /sdcard0 should help, there is a package for that there: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32093304&postcount=179
OR you might want to consider to just make /sdcard1 a symlink to /sdcard0 with at least the drawback of not being able to use external sdcards anymore, as long as this is a symlink and not a directory - and maybe other sideeffects!
SOLUTION 2: Specifically for this app, the app itself has some glitches, see there the last post on how to install this specific app: http://forum.revolution.co.uk/topic/636/?page=4
Thanks for help and clarifying, maybe a repartition will be needed? (If it is needed, any link to a useful guide for someone that can manage UNIX / GNU/Linux systems but doesn't know too much Android specific stuff would be the most helpful)
Or is the problem maybe another one?
The partitioning isn't the issue, what else could be the problem?
----
My System Details:
Nook Tablet bought from ebay with CM10 (I think) installed already in internal memory, but no working internal recovery - installed CWM 6.0.3.7 and CM10.1.2 internally using a bootable CM10.1.x sdcard. Maybe the partitioning also isn't the default but was done by the pre-owner.
Okay, seems like size wasn't the issue
I repartitioned according to the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1531120
And now made internal memory 1 to be 3,3 GB and Internal memory 2 to be 9,99 GB
Any of these still has enough space left, so there must be another problem ... any help?
Then some other issues that seem to persist: adb is shown "offline", I am running Linux and don't need to mess with Windows driver issues, all relevant solutions that I found for this didn't work, I also tried with data/factory reset and a new cm10.1.2 and nothing else on the system, still it is always "offline" ( adb in cwm works ).
Is there overall something else to care about with the Nook Tablet that I might have overlooked? It is also not too nice that the usual "central resource" for installing CM ( http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_acclaim ) does only show a non-working general guide... but I don't want to complain
I am also having the same issue. I have a nook tablet 16gb running CM 10.1 with 3.3 GB Internal Storage for all of the apps and 9.99 GB Internal Storage for everything else.
I have 2.8 GB free on the apps storage partition and 9 GB free on the other partition. when I go into Settings --> Apps and look at the SD Card tab, I see that 326 MB are listed as available for SD Card storage with 0 MB. I am not using an external SD Card.
I am unable to "move to SD Card" for any apps even though the option is highlighted. All apps have installed fine, but when I ran Minion Rush for the first time it stopped and said that I need 70 MB of available SD Card storage space to download additional data for the game. I have plenty of space available on both partitions, but for some reason this app doesn't recognize either of these partitions as an internal SD Card.
Is there a way to configure this device to use either of these partitions as internal an SD Card?

I figured it out bluesock. There is a former post that provides a solution. There is a ROM you will need to install that will fix this issue.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32093304&postcount=179
I copied the ROM to an SD Card then booted up into CWM and installed this ROM. After the reboot the second partition is renamed to SD Card and shows 10 GB of total space. Under file manager this partition is listed as sdcard 0 instead of sdcard 1. After that I was able to install apps of any size successfully.
Ok this "ROM" basically only modifies /system/etc/vold.fstab and switches sdcard0 around with sdcard1. This probably helps when not having a sdcard like in your case.
My problem wasn't this one, I have an external sdcard - so both sdcard0 and sdcard1 have enough space left!
But there was a problem with this specific app, check the last post on how to install: http://forum.revolution.co.uk/topic/636/?page=4 - sorry for not reporting back earlier, I will edit the first post in some minutes with our two "solutions" / explanations.
But first:
For you the better solution might be to do what digixmax said in that thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2430335
I will reply there in some seconds with more details about what he said!
